CSA Haul

CSA 2010 Week 14

This week’s haul was patty pan squash, a ginormous zucchini, potatoes, two pounds of tomatoes, cherry tomatoes and a pound and a half of green beans. I’m thinking of freezing at least some of this batch of beans, and the tomatoes are going to be made into gazpacho tonight (so it has a full 24 […]

CSA 2010 Week 13

Today’s haul was: garlic, carrots, zucchini, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, red peppers, and romano beans. Last week, I used the string beans to make Thai Green Beans from Simply in Season. I made it without the tofu, and it was a great side. The cabbage became cole slaw that we had with Simply Recipes’ Sloppy Joes

CSA 2010 Week 12

Today’s haul was: garlic, green beans, zucchini, tomatoes, cabbage, lettuce, cucumbers, a red pepper, and eggplant. Still nothing revolutionary to report prep-wise. We’ve been going with quick and easy veggie sides. This weekend, I managed to score the above: a five pound box of organic wild Maine blueberries. I have the last batch going through

CSA 2010 Week 11

Today’s haul (mostly destined for the grill): celery, eggplant, zucchini, pattypan squash, tomatoes, cucumber, tomatoes, garlic, and new potatoes. Nothing new or revolutionary to report on the cooking front – it’s been all grill or basic prep. This week’s is coming up to my father’s with me for further consideration.

CSA 2010 Week 10

My post is a bit late (late summer company-associated craziness), but CSA pick up was in fact on time. This week’s haul was: baby bok choy, broccoli, tomatoes, patty pan squash, red peppers, cucumbers, and cabbage. Nothing particularly revolutionary preparation-wise this week. I did do a lovely Roasted-Summer Vegetables over pasta from Serving Up the

CSA 2010 Week 9

This week’s haul included: cucumbers, turnips, green beans, red peppers, pattypan squash, tomato, frisee and some adorable baby fennel. About the only new and different thing I did with last week’s haul was a frittata. I’ll have to claim an Epicurious recipe as my inspiration, as it contained parsley, zucchini (I subbed a pattypan squash),

CSA 2010 Week 8

We received: cucumbers, cabbage, radishes, pattypan squash, tomatoes, new potatoes, Swiss chard, parsley, and the loveliest looking baby carrots I’ve seen in a long while. I’m not sure what I’ll be making yet with this, but I know it’ll be delicious. Nothing new to report from last week, except that I can confirm that roasted

CSA 2010 Week 7

First, for last week, other than salad, the only interesting dish I can claim to making was Garlicky Kale with New Potatoes. The potatoes were fabulous – just so lovely and creamy. Unfortunately, last week’s kale was a rather stemmy variety, so while the leafy part was delicious, despite my best efforts, there were some

CSA 2010 Week 6

Today’s haul was kale (two bunches), turnips, a pepper, new potatoes (!), mesclun, and a whole pound of eggplant. There were actually tomatoes available, but they were pretty well gone by, so I opted for the eggplant instead. I don’t really have any interesting to report from last week. We had company for a good

This week’s haul was lettuce, frisee, green peppers, scallions, shell peas, baby bok choy, Swiss chard, and turnips. I also grabbed eggs, and some locally made jack cheese. The shell peas are already shelled, and in a bowl, available for snacking. The lettuce, frisee, and some of the baby bok choy are in the gigantic
